    Take 20 ... gone?

    I thought this was strange too. As has been pointed out before, Take 20 was a shortcut to something that could be done already. However, I was surprised to see Take 10 still in the PHB, which I have far more trouble explaining to players.

    Exceptions, flavor text and rules interaction: Icy Terrain/Flight/Cold Resistance

    Kelric, Human Fighter. I sat to your right. For some reason, when you said you were going to post on the boards, I didn't assume it would be ENWorld. I'll stop derailing your thread now :)

    Exceptions, flavor text and rules interaction: Icy Terrain/Flight/Cold Resistance

    Stormtower- that scenario sounds pretty familiar! Were you the DM for one of the Game Day sessions at Games & Stuff in Glen Burnie?

    Into The Shadowhaunt [SPOILERS] Dwarves On Fire?

    The Rogue was the one who fell in during our game. I played the Human Fighter, and I just knocked the lantern out of the way before charging over the sarcophagus. The dwarf started far back, so it took her a while to make it up to the fight.

    Why is secound wind not an encounter power?

    That's what I'll be doing too, along with making power cards for "Charge", "Opportunity Attack", "Run", etc.

    4th Edition and girls

    If I understood correctly, 50% of the women you played with enjoyed it? It's been my experience that it's not a male/female difference, it's a taste/style thing. I've run minis intensive games in the past, and it seemed like there were members of both sexes that either enjoyed or didn't enjoy...

    Are you blowing anything off to get 4e on Friday?

    Thinking about going to the midnight madness that my FLGS is holding for those of us who preordered. That would mean blowing off my regular Thursday game night, and going into work late on Friday (because in addition to being out past midnight, I'd be up even later reading the books.) Or maybe...

    D&D 4E 4E PrRC ~v2.7~ FINAL UPDATE May 29.08

    Looks like Verys got some measure of fame for his work, a mention in Forbes: http://www.forbes.com/technology/2008/05/29/dungeons-dragons-game-tech-personal-cx_kk_0530dragon.html

    D&D 4E (Poll for those buying 4ed only!) How old are you?

    26, can't really say when I started playing since I grew up going to science fiction conventions and started going to the gaming room as soon as I was able. Everyone in my D&D groups are in their 20's, though I also have friends in their 40's that are looking forward to 4e for their own groups.

    Request to WotC: Feather Me Yon Oaf!

    I would for sure. I'm most interested in finding out what replaced them, and why. (And then I can use the original names on my character sheet)

    Wow... Encounters are quickly made.

    I'm working on that right now for my 3.5 finale game this Sunday. But even using mostly out-of-the-box MM creatures, I still have to cross-reference spells, feats, and abilities that are elsewhere. Thus my prep work is consisting of having to copy and paste spells into one document for each...

    Impressions from KotS

    It didn't appear, however, that there were prices for the kobold's gear you can collect when you try to sell them in town. Our writeup is here: http://www.critical-hits.com/2008/05/20/session-report-keep-on-the-shadowfell/

    Favoured Class

    I thought someone had said that your favored class gives extra HP per level, but I don't have a source, so could be wrong.

    Are you buying the rule books separately or as a gift set?

    I'm buying all 3 books from my FLGS. They had some good bonuses by preordering through them, plus they're doing a Midnight launch party. However, I think that'll be the three books, and not a gift set.

    Are Rituals Vaporware?

    The preview of Rituals is scheduled for Wed 05/28. So at least that gives you a week to decide.

    Encumberance... In or Out?

    Agreed. I tend to ignore encumbrance rules anyway, but I know that's not the solution for everyone. I hope the rules are a happy middle.
